1/3 = 4/12
Four. 4/12 simplifies to 1/3. Also, you can multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/3 (one and three) by four to get 4/12.

Change one fraction into an equivalent fraction so that both have the same denominator. 3/12 + 1/3 = 3/12 + 4/12 Both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 have been multiplied by 4 to convert it to the equivalent fraction 4/12. 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12
12, i think
To subtract one fourth from seven twelfths, first, find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 12 and 4 is 12. Convert one fourth to twelfths: (1/4 = 3/12). Now, subtract: (7/12 - 3/12 = 4/12), which simplifies to (1/3). Therefore, seven twelfths minus one fourth equals one third.
To add fractions with different denominators, you first need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator for 3, 4, and 6 is 12. So, you need to convert each fraction to have a denominator of 12. One third is equivalent to 4 twelfths, one fourth is equivalent to 3 twelfths, and one sixth is equivalent to 2 twelfths. Adding them together, you get 4/12 + 3/12 + 2/12 = 9/12, which simplifies to 3/4.
In order to add fractions you must have them over a common denominator. The lowest common denominator in that case is twelfths. Ok, now to convert... 1 1/4 = 1 3/12 1 1/3 = 1 4/12 now the addition is easy 1 3/12 + 1 4/12 = 2 7/12
Convert to a common denominator (in this case 12), then do the subtraction.
1/3 = 4/12 and 1/4 = 3/12
